Serra Essay- My Call

By: Sofia Covarrubias

Throughout my life, I always knew about God but I had never sensed him near.
That was until April of 2022 when I realized how much my purpose and vocation
mattered to me. Being at my old school seemed like the worst time of my life
because of the ruthless drama I caused. Sometime during the middle of the month,
I sat down and took time for myself to read. Just reading by myself and not having
to have others validate or categorize me changed my perspective on everything.
This slice of a moment; minor action looked as if it were drawn-out, yet it passed
in a flash. A moment I think about dearly. Somehow as I glance back at it I imagine
that awareness had purpose, which led my focus to God. Somehow I never knew
the power of that love until now.
My vocation is simple, yet effective. No matter which path I choose, I find it
necessary to find out every miniature beauty of it. Hardships, purpose, emotions,
how do they affect my future?
For the time being my only goal is to live right here in this path I am directed in. I
cherish every moment of failure and even embarrassment as if I am learning a
lesson each time. In the end it will all be worth the challenge.
